Getting Started with Medicare
Learning Medicare: Learning about Medicare can be overwhelming, but we're here to make it easier for you. We want to help you understand the basics of Medicare, the different types of coverage you can choose from, how to sign up, and more. Our goal is to give you access to tools and resources that will help you feel more confident when making decisions about Medicare.
Medicare is a type of health insurance for people living in the U.S. who are a certain age or have a disability or specific medical condition. There are different parts to Medicare: Part A and Part B, which are run by the government, and Part C (also known as Medicare Advantage) and Part D, which are offered by private insurance companies. You can also get extra coverage with Medicare supplement insurance plans (Medigap) from private insurers to help pay for costs that Part A and Part B might not cover.
Learning Medicare: Let's explore and understand Medicare
If you're new to Medicare, want to understand it better, or are helping someone with it, this is the place to begin your learning journey.
Medicare eligibility
People are eligible for Medicare if they are 65 years old or older, or if they are younger and have a qualifying disability or medical condition. In some cases, individuals with certain chronic illnesses or end-stage renal disease may also be eligible for Medicare coverage.
Medicare Costs
Medicare doesn't cover everything, so you may still have to pay some costs like copays and deductibles for medical services. Unlike some insurance plans, Medicare doesn't have a limit on how much you can end up paying out of your own pocket in a year. This means that even with Medicare, you might still have to budget for healthcare expenses.
How to enroll in Medicare
You can sign up for Medicare during your Initial Enrollment Period, which starts three months before your 65th birthday and ends three months after. If you're automatically enrolled, you'll get your Medicare card in the mail around three months before your birthday. If you're not automatically enrolled, you can apply online, visit a local Social Security office, or call Social Security to sign up over the phone.
Coverage Options
It's important to explore extra coverage options like Medicare Advantage or Supplement plans since Medicare doesn't cover everything. These plans can help with expenses like dental and vision care, providing the financial protection you need for your healthcare needs.
